Penguins Gameday 1/3/10 - I bet it's Warmer in Fla.

Almost put '09.


Four in a row is only good if its a winning streak, or playing connect four; this Pens fans is getting a bit more serious. All teams in the NHL go through this, we discussed this last night. Good teams find a way through this, time to step up boys. Your getting out played, out worked, and last night you got out hit right off the first face off.

One good way to end a losing streak is to play a team you know, a team for some reason if you play badly you end up beating. That team, this year, is the Florida Panthers.

Here are the highlights from the last meeting and the PensUniverse recap here...

Kunitz-Crosby-Dupuis
Fedotenko-Malkin-Guerin
Cooke-Staal-Kennedy
Rupp-Adams-Talbot

Letang-Orpik
Eaton-Goligoski
McKee-Skoula

Fleury

"There's no real excuses. "We're not executing and we're paying the price for it. We've got a group who's got a lot of character and pride in their game, but our focus has got to be on executing." Sid Crosby




My thoughts for this afternoon's game:

1. Hit early, hit often, then hit some more.
2. Work, back check, fore check; out work the other guys
3. 14.8% is not good enough, time to get going, or time to fire someone. Last I check Mike Yeo was the power play guy. I'd start packing.
